Why does stress build up at transform boundaries?

Physics
1 answer:

3 0
Tectonic plate edges are not smooth. At transform boundaries, plates move against each other, but since the plates aren't smooth, lockups form. Stress is built up as both sides continue to steadily push against each other until there is sudden movement, where both plates quickly slide until they lock up again. This is what causes earthquakes.

+5m/s

Explanation:

When doing the math we figure out that e is going to be slowing down at -4m/s² for 5 seconds. In total he is slowing down -20m/s which we take from the total speed of +25m/s to get his current new speed.
